Think it was worth the wait ;)

Too many postings of the wharncliffe Mini Trapper, I just couldn't resist. Was looking to order the bone stag, then stumbled across this one.

Definitely worth the wait!! First one like it I've seen. :cool: The grain plus the saw cuts make it appear amazingly wood like.:thumbsup: The color is fantastic, not to mention the beautiful Damascus.:thumbsup::thumbsup: Congrats on that one!!!
 
Some of my recent Case knife acquisitions:

I just received the Tribal Spear; it's the big one in the photo. It is very comfortable in hand. ;):D



The Case Mini Moose was slimmer than I thought it would be.



And the Medium Toothpick feels smaller than it actually is (4.25 inches).

 
Been looking this thread over again, been awhile since I cataloged any of my knives; my favorite pattern is the Stockman so I'll start there. Got the 1970's and very early 80's covered on pattern sizes. Okay on the late 1980's to early 2000's, but I haven't gotten any of the new patterns since the early 2000's (Jr. Cattle Knife, Humpback Stockman, or Sowbelly Stockman) - guess I should take care of that first. Then I need to get back in time to the 1920's to 1960's - that takes a bigger investment! OH

I made a terrible mistake a couple of days ago. I went back into the local knife shop to show off the Case 6232 jack that I had bought there a few days earlier. That was my "mistake." Well, they had just taken in some more knives in trade and as soon as I saw this one I snapped it up, despite thinking recently that I was starting to have "enough" knives. :p I've been looking for a Wharncliffe copperlock, but I think this Wharncliffe copperhead will do me very nicely instead. It is absolutely perfect as far as I can see, never carried or sharpened, with blue bone in what I believe is "standard" jigging, and half stops. On first look I identified it as a 2011, but when I took a closer look at home I confirmed that it is a 2001. (Also -- and I didn't notice until I looked at this picture -- the backsprings are flush at the half stops, just like on the Case/TB-designed swaybacks.). Pull is about a 4, very comfortable.

By golly, if you are going to make a mistake, then by all means make a good one - and you did! Beautiful blue bone. OH
